This easy garter-stitch blanket is based on the washcloth pattern our grannies used to make. There is a picot edge to dress it up, but you can leave it unadorned if you like. The washcloth, tied up with a bar of soap, makes a nice shower or housewarming gift. For a grown-up throw or afghan just keep on knitting!
